I really like the Sturgill Cut Grass Album. So much so i ended up getting his album A Sailors View of Earth. Everyone has their opinions, for me it was a nice discovery.

Not sure what constitutes the "current spotlight", as Sturgill has been making waves for the last 7-8 years on the edges of country music. He's part of a push against mainstream country, and I, for...
I don’t think Bob’s knocking anybody. He’s simply answering the question asked. “Have you ever thought of recording a bluegrass album?” I think his answer is out of respect to bluegrass, the Beatles...
Okay now, I LOVE that kayagum version. What a talent.
How can she get 1.2k thumbs down? Eff YT.

Love it. Gypsy jazz tenor guitar... for the one tenth of one percent of us that this appeals to, ME included. This is not affordable by the the OP's definition but check this baby out. Guy I play in...
Rumor has it that Will built an F5 (actually several for Michael to select from) for Michael Cleveland. One of the ones not selected by Michael ended up at the Music Emporium, and had the trident...
According to hearsay, when he was first touring he had no agent, and it was nearly impossible to contact him. He gave out the number of a pool hall in Toronto, where you could leave him a message,...
I DVR'd Bluegrass Underground with this band and Wow, Great stuff. Watch the whole episode if you can find it. Michael plays mostly violin but when they went double mando with banjo and guitar it was...

My sister sent this to me:
Mando and moando-like instruments at 00:57, 1:27, 1:55, 2:20, 3:03, 4:15.
I have one of the early BlueRidge BR40-T. It does have a truss rod, some did not.
Previously, I had an early 1930s Martin 0-18T that was a super excellent tenor. I did sell it when I started...

The "blonde" bridge was a gift from Corrado when Tracy and I visited him for several days a few years back. It is made of a rare species called Ligurian Bosso (Buxus sempervirens) and had some great...
It is with great sadness that I wish to acknowledge the life and talent of my dear friend, Ricky Jay, who passed away yesterday at his home in Los Angeles. Ricky was perhaps the greatest practitioner...
One night in summer 2017 as I laid in bed, I emailed Max with a proposition to build a tenor guitar. Through some repair and set-up work he'd done for me before, I had already developed a real...
Without wanting to defend the design unduly, that principle at least is much the same as the bridge used by John Dopyera for his original tricone design:

Capos seem to be a popular topic around here from time to time, maybe somebody will get a kick out of this short video ... Tommy Emmanuel discusses his frustrations and techniques for guitar capo.

Sheet Music for this hymn.
Great job on that, Lappy!
Well, today is Jimmy Dorsey's birthday (actually, it's Feb. 29th but leap year etc.etc. blah yada...Anyhow...) here's a chord melody rendition of a song Dorsey's band introduced in that most...
